App never works

Every time I want to use this app, I have to delete it and then add the app back. Until I do so, it will only show information from the most recent time I downloaded the application. When I tried to add an absence, the buttons didn’t work—once again, had to remove and re-download. Not a good setup.

Good but could be better

This app works well for certain features like messaging but would be better if it pushed real time updates. As a parent, I would prefer to see updates throughout the day.

Doesn’t send messages reliably…

Up to date app, still doesn’t send

App stops updating often.

I have to delete and re-download this app every couple weeks or so because it just stops working completely. I’ve given up and just check my email instead for the updates.

Why not improve the app

This app was called tadpoles and I think they changed the name because reviews are so bad. The two apps are exact same! Why don’t you improve your app? If it is bad no matter what name your change you will get bad reviews anyway

Ugh

Love that you can receive pictures, updates, and message the teacher through it and all. But I haven’t been able to do any of that because it never refreshes and always freezes. Please fix these bugs and glitches because it’s a little frustrating when you’re wanting to see updates on your children. I looked to see if it needed updates but to no avail. I hope you guys figure something out because I know I’m not the only one experiencing this.

Needs improvements

Please look at implementing a live-update on activities. As a parent, it would be nice to see what my child is doing throughout the day rather than just sending the report at checkout.

Bugs

Have too delete app and redownload I order too see anything. Gets stuck on one week n then nothing till i redownload it won’t let me refresh.

No ability to save images to camera roll

Have used other apps that were seamless, user friendly/intuitive. This app is clunky and can’t save images to camera roll.

Messages and push notifications

I like the idea of this app and the ability to message my child’s teacher. However, when I go to write a message back to her, the screen reverts all the way back to the very first message so I have to scroll scroll scroll to get back down to what her teacher last said in order to respond. Also, when I do respond, I’ll get a push notification-of my OWN response-hours after I’ve sent it. Please fix both of these issues soon!

No real time updates? Seriously?

I enjoy the daily reports, but you only receive the daily reports AFTER you check your child out. In other words, you won’t see if your child ate or sleep until you sign them out. In my opinion, this is serious design flaw. Have questions about your child’s daily report? Guess what, you most likely won’t remember to ask them because you’ll see it after you already left the facility.

Love it

Glad the school is using this. Such an easy way to communicate with teachers and receive updates.

Update caused date to not refresh

I had to uninstall and reinstall in order to get the date to advance to the next day…yeah, they made the UI prettier, but broke some of the BASIC functionality

Loving the new interface.

The redesign is really nice. App is easy to use.

Stop Forcing Gmail + Google Password login- Security Nightmare!

I am trying to sign up for this app before my child’s first day of school. I use Gmail as my email and so my account with the school is linked to that email only. This app is FORCING me to log in using my Google password and not giving an option to set a unique password for this app. I’m not okay with that. That’s a security nightmare. I would never want to risk my email being compromised and having the sensitive information about my child (and their classmates) being potentially exposed simply because it’s linked to and accessible through my Gmail. ****Developers- please fix this and allow people with Gmail IDs/usernames to input a unique password for this app and not force Google platform/Gmail linked login.

Not working at all

This app cannot find my child record at all. Both I and daycare double checked the spelling to make sure there is no typo in my email address, tried reinstalling, tried deleting the record and reinserting from daycare system, none working. How wrote this app? Is this a school homework project. The most basic functionality is not working. I give 0/100 to this app.

Works fine

I can see pictures and read daily reports

Can’t even create account lol

Email sent with token and can’t validate both manually and through link.

What happened to the notifications?

About 3 weeks who the notifications stopped happening for drop off/pick up, photos and school notes.

No longer get notifications

The app was fine until a couple of weeks ago but now I no longer get notifications. Nobody seems to have an answer as to why, but I know I’m not the only one it’s happening to. Is a fix coming?
